Turn a Raspberry Pi into an Airplay server using RPiPlay to enable screen mirroring on tvs, monitors and projectors.
This project essentially creates a docker image wrapping RPiPlay and making it easily deployable to balena fleets.
Note:
- Currently, the image does not include the gstreamer renderer
- This project aims to build a very minimal image. The binary has been dockerized and it is based on busybox. The image size is ~14 MB.
-
You can simply join the balenaHub openFleet.
- You don't need to signup for a balenaCloud account
- Your device will keep running the latest releases
- No control over configurations
-
If you want to manage your own device and fleet, you can run this app is as simple as deploying it to a balenaCloud fleet.
- You need to signup for a balenaCloud account
- You manage your fleet and releases
- You have total control over configurations
You can do it in just one click by using the button below:
The following Device Variables might be required for proper scaling and resolutions:
| Name | Supported Values | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| AIRPIPLAY_NAME | Text | Air-Pi-Play@<hostname> |
Specify the network name of the AirPlay server |
| AIRPIPLAY_AUDIO_OUT | hdmi or analog or off |
hdmi |
Set audio output device |
| AIRPIPLAY_BACKGROUND | on or auto or off |
auto |
Show black background always, only during active connection, or never |
| AIRPIPLAY_LATENCY_MODE | 1 or 0 |
1 |
Enables low-latency mode. Low-latency mode reduces latency by effectively rendering audio and video frames as soon as they are received, ignoring the associated timestamps. As a side effect, playback will be choppy and audio-video sync will be noticably off |
| AIRPIPLAY_ROTATION | 90 or 180 or 270 |
not set | Specify image rotation in multiples of 90 degrees |
| AIRPIPLAY_FLIP | horiz or vert or both |
not set | Specify image flipping |
